The park has a merry-go-round and train for kids to ride.There is a small zoo with rescued animals.You can fish , feed ducks or go for a paddle boat ride. There are trails to walk, grills to cook on,on and playgrounds with appropriate ages listed for the children. The park rangers and attendants are very helpful, you can fill a whole day at the park.
So neat, and so many things to do. Very affordable. I do wish they stayed open a little later. I would go here much more often but its about an hour and a half away. The paddle boats are great. This place makes for an awesome one day mini-vacation.
This is a great family park. Lots to do for adults snd children. Very clean and well maintained. Excellent hiking trails
My family and I love to take trips to Dan Nicholas. I have a 17,12 and two 7 yr old twins. There is something there for all ages. My 17 yr likes to play putt putt and ride the paddle boats. My son loves when we play baseball and kickball at the fields. I can never get my twin girls off the playground and the carousel.My husband and I love to take walks around the lake and enjoy time with each other in God's beauty.
This Park has something for everyone. It has a wonderful park area for older and younger children. There is a section for small children separate from the older ones. There are a couple of attractions - carousel, train ride, mining, paddle boats, mini golf. They have a very small petting zoo - animal display area. During the summer they have a water splash section for the children to play in. There are nice hiking trails. All in all a lot to do for families and dogs. Does get a little crowded during the summer months.
Dan Nicolas is the place to take the family for a hike in the woods, Geocaching, playground, camping, or a birthday party in one of the shelters. Activities like riding a paddle boat or the miniature train, playing putt putt, or strolling through the little zoo cost a small fee. A nice nature center & gem mining are also on site. So glad Rowan has a great place like this for family fun.
Good place for your family to enjoy has merry-go- round a train fishing paddel boats and doent cost a arm and leg to do these things also has a campground
We enjoyed our stay at the campground, it's a very family friendly campground! My only complaint is that we didn't know which way to drive into the park so that we would be facing the right direction to back in our RV. My husband did his first 3 point turn in an RV :) Bath houses were very clean, and there were so many amenities. We enjoyed playing tennis, and spent an afternoon at the park playing mini golf and riding paddle boats. You will have people walking through your campsite if you are close to a bathhouse, even though signs clearly say not to. All in all, it's a great campground for families!
My husband and I took our two grandkids to the park during this past summer. We were absolutely amazed at the different things to do and so cheap. Our grandkids call this the "special park" and ask to go there during every visit to see us. It's nice to still be able to find something affordable to take children to and so nice and clean. Everyone that works there has been pleasant and friendly.
Campgrounds are clean and neat. Lots to do in the park. Very nice yet not too far from Salisbury and other accommodations.
